Hello
I seem to have lost my way in the pool of parallelism here.
My analysis :
A)I found no error in this sentence. Isn't the sentence framed in the following manner : Manifestations.........led to the settlement of......and (led to) the occupation of .....
B) Incorrect usage of 'also'
C) I saw this option and noticed a shift in the placement of the modifier 'in the latter half of the second millenium' , which really does not make much of a difference here. Besides that, there is a change in meaning here. Did the manifestations lead to all of this or was the policy manifested in all of this...? Unsure
D)'the' is missing . Incorrect
E)Incorrect usage of 'also'.
Hence, I was left confused between options A and C.
Could the experts throw light on the difference between the two options?
Thank you.
